Man Utd have ‘doubts’ over the potential signing of Joshua Zirkzee! The Dutch striker, known for his clinical finishing and impressive performances, was on the club’s radar. However, concerns have arisen regarding his fit within the squad and his consistency on the pitch. Will United take the plunge or turn their attention elsewhere? Stay tuned for all the latest updates on this developing story by seeing the link below! 🔴⚽
On Sunday afternoon, reports indicated that Manchester United were nearing a deal to bring Joshua Zirkzee to Old Trafford. However, a late-night update from journalist Christopher Michel contradicted these claims, suggesting that Zirkzee might be eyeing a last-minute move to AC Milan instead.
Zirkzee, who has had an impressive season with Bologna, scoring 11 goals in Serie A, has been instrumental in helping his team secure a fifth-place finish and a spot in the Champions League for the first time in 60 years. His stellar performance has caught the attention of several top clubs, including Manchester United and AC Milan. Despite the strong interest from the Premier League club, Zirkzee is reportedly reconsidering and could opt for a move to the San Siro.
Michel’s report highlights that Manchester United have been in discussions with Zirkzee’s representatives for several weeks. However, this prolonged negotiation period might have caused some concerns. Previous updates indicated that the deal had not yet heated up, and despite INEOS giving the go-ahead for negotiations, there are doubts at Old Trafford regarding Zirkzee’s willingness to join the club, especially with AC Milan also in the picture.
The Italian giants have long been interested in Zirkzee, even before Manchester United’s interest became public. This enduring interest from Milan could influence the Dutch striker’s decision. Michel commented:
“Manchester United has been in contact with his management for weeks. As previously reported, it hasn’t gone hot yet. Now INEOS has given the green light for negotiations. But there are doubts at Manchester United [as to] whether Zirkzee really wants to come or would rather go to AC Milan.”
